Explanation
When driving on a multi-lane street with two-way traffic, you should drive ahead of or behind the other vehicles. This approach is safer because it avoids driving directly alongside other vehicles, reducing the risk of collisions. By staying ahead of or behind, you minimize the chance of being caught in situations where another driver might unexpectedly change lanes or crowd your lane. This helps maintain a safer distance from other vehicles and allows you more time to react to any potential hazards.
